Reflections from my recent Success Summit conference

 True respect cannot be bought.  It must be earned.

 Whatever you do, don’t lie.

 Self-care is vital to last in this industry.  It’s non-negotiable.

 Never forget who’s helped you along the way.  No one is all that good by themselves.

 If your foundation is not strong, money would give you a false sense of power.  If money is power, who would we be without money then?

 Always put your why front and center.  It will lift you up when things get tough.  This industry is no joke.

 When you’re self-employed, it’s easy to quit if you don’t have strong enough reasons to stay in.

 If your work makes you a better person.; if it gives you a sense of purpose, you’d get to the other side when people tell you it’s impossible.

 You’re probably not doing much if you don’t have haters and critics.

 You know you’ve found a home when you’re surrounded by people who speak your language and think like you.  While others may think you’re nuts.
